It took awhile but he eventually got the amount he needed. This was before we made friends with the furniture fact...

Thanks Matt. This morning I noticed I did not have the "Log me in automatically" option set. I guess yesterday when I came back the system had logged me out already. The option is set now.

Hmmm ... I thought I replied already to your post Matt. Thanks again Matt. I'll definitely glass both sides, and use the best quality wood I can find for the gunwales.
